The organizers have also arranged for hot breakfast (oatmeal) and soup to be served. Most people go home at night but then come back to the square in the morning and continue the demonstration. They won't stop until ... until justice is done. "Today or Never" is one of their slogans. The police generally support Yuschenko so they are not going to break up the demonstrators.

Do you not know there are towers that touch the sky from which we once ruled?" The ranger...
